Lovely day out today. Could’ve been lovelier, had we not spent large parts of it stuck in traffic.
Japanese lunch with the Codefidence Crew, Limor and Gilad. Much fun was had. Excellent discussion, great food, lovely doggy. Must give Maud the cat online presence.
Didn’t make it to fantasy.con. Have I mentioned the traffic?

I’m on vacation now; I check my work email twice a day, and try hard to resist urge to answer. Occasionally, I fail.
